It's WINTER and some of us are getting sick ... what can Miss McLennan do to help?
From the first article, “Preventing Illness by Bolstering Immunity with Essential Oils

What oils will help boost our immunity?

Uses of Lemongrass Oil

  • Lemongrass oil is a great addition to various skin care and cosmetic products, such as soaps, deodorants, shampoos, lotions, and tonics. It also works as an air freshener and deodorizer, especially when blended with other essential oils like geranium or bergamot. Simply put it in an oil burner, diffuser, or vaporizer.5
  • Lemongrass oil is also known for its ability to repel insects, such as mosquitoes and ants, due to its high citral and geraniol content.6 Spray it around your home, diffuse it, or rub a diluted mixture on your skin.
  • Lemongrass oil's refreshing scent makes it a valuable aromatherapeutic oil. Its clean and calming aroma helps relieve stress, anxiety, irritability, and insomnia, and prevent drowsiness.7, Lemongrass oil can also help relax and tone your muscles, as well as relieve muscle pain, stomachache, toothache, migraines, and headaches.
